MTV talked to both Tyrese Gibson and Marvel’s Avi Arad about the Luke Cage feature film. Here’s a clip:

“I’m probably going to be benching about 415 pounds once I get into that mode,” Gibson said with a grin as he discussed his desire to play Luke Cage in an upcoming superhero flick from the makers of “The Fantastic Four” and the “Spider-Man” films. “They’re just saying that ‘Luke Cage was a real big and muscular guy, and we want to make sure that you appear to be that.’ “
